Abstract

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Lampenträger für eine Fahrzeugleuchte mit wenigstens zwei Lampenfassungen zur Aufnahme von Glühlampen, wobei die mindestens zwei Glühlampen mit Abstand zueinander in dem Gehäuse der Fahrzeugleuchte anzuordnen sind, indem die an dem Lampenträger gehaltenen, wenigstens zwei Glühlampen durch eine Öffnung in das Leuchtengehäuse ragen und der Lampenträger lösbar an dem Leuchtengehäuse zu haltern ist, und wobei der Lampenträger mit elektrischen Leiterbahnen zur Stromversorgung der Glühlampen ausgestattet ist.The invention relates to a lamp holder for a Vehicle lamp with at least two lamp holders for recording of light bulbs, the at least two light bulbs at a distance from each other in the housing of the vehicle lamp are to be arranged by holding the at least two light bulbs through an opening in the lamp housing protrude and the lamp holder releasably on the lamp housing is to be held, and the lamp holder with electrical conductor tracks for the power supply of the incandescent lamps Is provided.

Das durch die Erfindung zu lösende Problem besteht darin, die nach herkömmlicher Art erforderliche Vielfalt an verschieden gestalteten Lampenträgern zu verringern.The problem to be solved by the invention is the variety required in the conventional way designed lamp holders to reduce.

Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß der Lampenträger aus wenigstens zwei Modulen (1, 2) zusammengesetzt ist, die jeweils mit wenigstens einer Lampenfassung (10, 11) für eine Glühlampe und mit Leiterbahnen (5-9, 16-18, 16a-18a) zur Stromversorgung der Glühlampen ausgestattet sind. Vorzugsweise sind die wenigstens zwei Module (1, 2) längsverschiebbar und dabei in verschiedenen Positionen arretierbar miteinander verbunden. Eine besondere Ausführung der Erfindung sieht vor, daß die wenigstens zwei zu einem Lampenträger zusammengesetzten Module (1, 2) zueinander gleich sind.

Figure 00000001
This problem is solved according to the invention in that the lamp holder is composed of at least two modules (1, 2), each with at least one lamp holder (10, 11) for an incandescent lamp and with conductor tracks (5-9, 16-18, 16a- 18a) are equipped to supply power to the incandescent lamps. The at least two modules (1, 2) are preferably longitudinally displaceable and can be locked together in different positions. A special embodiment of the invention provides that the at least two modules (1, 2) assembled to form a lamp holder are identical to one another.
